ABSTRACT
Probiotics, being “live microorganism administered in adequate amounts, can confer a benecial physiological effect on the host” (Rokka and Rantamaki, 2010; Dong et al., 2013). Much evidence has shown that probiotics have the benecial potential for the host’s health (Weichselbaum, 2009). Various health benets mentioned in the literature include antimutagenic and anticarcinogenic properties, anti-infection properties, immune system stimulation, serum cholesterol reduction, alleviation of lactose intolerance, and nutritional enhancement (Dong et al., 2013).
